Notes
'American Dream' corn (Zea mays 'American Dream') is a vegetable grown for a full-season bicolor crop with premium flavor. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and loamy or clay soil. It grows fast and stands erect, so it also works as an accent in the food garden.
Pairs well with Dragon Tongue bush bean, Glacier tomato, and Nigra hollyhock.
